**NOTE!**
Run the thread up and down the peacock body a few times to cover the peacock if, like me, you consider it to look a bit too 'flashy'.
Presentation Tips: Fish it on a Floating or Intermediate line with 10-13ft of flurocarbon. Use a slow figure of Eight retrieve and add in some SHORT jerky pulls.
